Fun

This was a fun half day way to explore the area and see something new. Aleksander was our guide. He took us around the islands, we had two breaks to swim and paddleboard and snorkel, and as promised, he opened up the sails for a little bit on the other side the islands. I thought it packed a good punch for the price. There was no food included, but we could bring our own and put it in the cooler in the hold, which I actually preferred.

I don’t think the value...

I don’t think the value for money is right. It doesn’t feel like a tour, more like we’re allowed on someone’s home. Theres not a lot of space and the toilets are dirty. The stops and the skipper are nice but I think you can get something similar but private for the same amount of money (esp if you’re 2 or more people)

Operator response

Dear Alexandra, Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the stops and appreciated the skipper. We’re sorry that aspects of the experience, particularly the space on board and the condition of the toilets, did not meet your expectations. Our tours are designed to provide a smaller, relaxed and more intimate atmosphere on board, with guest capacity and spacing kept consistent across all departures. While many guests enjoy this style of experience, we understand that preferences regarding space and comfort can differ. We also take cleanliness very seriously, so your comments will be reviewed with our team immediately. Regarding value, we do our best to keep our pricing competitive for Hvar while offering a professionally operated small-group boat experience, which can often be difficult to find at a similar price point in the area. For guests looking for a more exclusive setup, we also offer a private version of the tour. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as feedback like this helps us improve. Warm regards, Marija The Day Sail team

Swimming was fun … I...

Swimming was fun … I expected more from the skipper - no explanations of where we were going what activities would be available ( he never set up paddle board) .. no history of area or islands. He just sat there on his phone and even one of the passengers ended up steering the sailboat.

A must-do boat trip in Hvar!!!!

We had the most incredible morning with the lovely skipper Petar! The boat trip allows time for chilling in the sun, swimming, snorkelling and paddle boarding in the most beautiful clear waters - it was the best part of our trip!
